Chapter 544 Master, are you about to establish your foundation?
Nangong Jingyan and the other two were also seriously injured and leaned against the palace wall, dejected.
None of the three expected such an outcome, and their previous high spirits became a joke.
"I have nothing to say about losing to you."
Nangong Jingyan looked up at Xiao Ying, his peach blossom eyes dim and lifeless.
Including this time, he has been defeated by Xiao Ying three times.
At first I felt ashamed, unwilling to believe, and unwilling to accept...
Now, all that remains is dejection.
"So, you are willing to submit to me and sign a master-servant contract with me?"
Xiao Ying was quite surprised, after all, Nangong Jingyan has always been arrogant.
Nangong Jingyan chuckled: "Compared to death, of course it is better to be alive."
"Furthermore, after the master-servant contract is signed, I will be yours."
Xiao Ying automatically ignored what he said next. Although what he said was not wrong, it always felt improper when it came from this person's mouth.
"You're smart. If you're loyal to me in the future, I can help you build your foundation."
"Then I would like to thank you, Master."
Nangong Jingyan's wounded heart finally found some comfort.
"Master, can I call you that?"
Xiao Ying: "..."
Why does a very normal name sound inappropriate when said by this person?
After thinking about it, it’s not a problem of name, it’s a problem of Nangong Jingyan.
I simply ignored him and only looked at Chu Gan and Bai Xuening.
"What will you two choose? Don't think those armies outside can save you."
Chu Gan smiled foolishly, looking like a madman.
No one would have thought that he, the king of a country, would end up like this!
The plan that was originally thought to be foolproof was unexpectedly reversed by someone.
Not only did Xiao Ying control the entire palace, he also subdued the ancestors of the eight major families, including Bai Tianhao, the royal ancestor of Anlan Kingdom.
But the ancestor of his Chu family abandoned him, and the national teacher also abandoned him.
In their hearts, he was already a discarded child.
No matter what choice he makes, he will never be trusted by them again.
And there is only one end for him, which is death.
There are many brothers and sisters in the royal family, and they can easily establish a new king when the time comes.
I'm not willing to accept this.
Being an emperor to the point where he has reached this point, he really cannot accept it.
"Master Xiao, I want to ask you a question."
He did not answer, but stared at Xiao Ying without blinking, with a complicated look.
Xiao Ying raised her chin and motioned him to speak.
Chu Gan was silent for a moment before asking, "Are you close to building your foundation?"
In an instant, the others also looked over in amazement, including the ancestors she had subdued.
Xiao Ying didn't understand what he meant, but still replied, "It's still early."
Everyone felt relieved immediately and then calmed down.
Even if Xiao Ying hasn't established his foundation, can't he still beat them?
But then she added, "It'll take at least three or four months."
Everyone: “…”
Many people almost died, their eyes were full of disbelief and their heads were buzzing.
Did they hear it right? Xiao Ying said that it would take another three or four months to build the foundation?
Are the four countries really going to welcome their first foundation-building cultivator?
She calls this still early? Then what is not early?
Bai Tianhao suddenly smiled bitterly, and at this moment he really let it go.
There really are geniuses and people with great opportunities in this world.
For such people, cultivation is as simple as eating and drinking water.
What are these old guys fighting for? They actually want to capture such a person alive and control him?
Reality has really given them a loud slap in the face, and it's time for them to wake up.
After waking up, many people became excited.
The more powerful Xiao Ying is, the truer her promise is. As a foundation-building cultivator, she should really be able to help them build their foundation.
"I am willing to surrender."
The crazy look on Chu Gan's face suddenly disappeared, leaving only deep admiration and respect.
He didn't need to feel guilty or ashamed for losing to a master who was half a step away from building a foundation.
Even if what happened today did not happen, the unification of the four kingdoms would only take a few months, and he would still have to surrender at that time.
Xiao Ying nodded, and finally only Bai Xuening was left.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xuening was very sensible this time and said very quickly: "I surrender too."
If it was before, she would really feel unwilling.
But Xiao Ying was about to establish her foundation, and she had no choice but to accept it.
Foundation building is the supreme existence in the minds of the cultivators of the four countries. They have spent thousands of years but no one has succeeded.
How could she be unwilling to accept such an existence?
There is a world of difference between them.
"A wise choice." Xiao Ying was very satisfied: "I believe you will not regret your choice today."
After saying this, he signed a contract with these three people.
In the end, only those officials were left. Except for a few who were taken away, the rest were under Yu Qianli's control. All officials above the fifth rank were here.
These are just ordinary people, so it is easier for Xiao Ying to make a contract with them.
Maybe they had already been brainwashed by Yu Qianli, so they didn't object.
In other words, those who opposed it are already dead, and those who dared to die for their country are always a minority.
In this way, Jingguo would be truly under her control.
"You will still govern Jing Kingdom from now on, but you must not start a war again."
"As long as you don't go too far, I won't interfere."
Xiao Ying gave everyone a reassurance, and those who had originally had ulterior motives gave up their thoughts.
Chu Gan boldly asked, "Then can the things you promoted in Yue Country also be given to us in Jing Country?"
One of the reasons why they took the risk to lure Xiao Ying was for these things.
As a result, it is easier to invite gods than to send them away.
Xiao Ying glanced at him and said with a smile, "That depends on your performance. If you are loyal enough, it's not impossible to give it to you."
Everyone couldn't help but feel excited. If they could get those high-yield crops, cement, glass and so on, today would be worth it.
"Then Master Xiao, please watch our performance."
Chu Gan was no longer depressed, but full of energy.
Xiao Ying said: "Then let the troops outside withdraw first."
"Don't worry, Imperial Master Xiao, I'll issue the order right away."
Chu Gan was very excited and, regardless of his injured arm, he immediately asked someone to grind ink and draft an edict.
Not long after the personal eunuch left with the imperial edict, Ling Yun came to report that the army outside the palace had withdrawn.
Half an hour later, the golden eagle came to report that the army outside the city had withdrawn and the city was gradually returning to peace.
The army didn't even know what was happening in the palace, let alone that everyone from the emperor to the officials had been subdued.
The battle was resolved without bloodshed, and all parties were very satisfied.
After all this operation, it was already the next morning.
All the officials and their families did not dare to leave without Xiao Ying's order and were temporarily placed in the palace.
Chu Gan suddenly came and invited her to his private vault.
"This is the treasure accumulated by the successive emperors of my Chu family. Master Xiao, please feel free to use it."
Since you have surrendered, you have to show your credentials. For Chu Gan, these are the most precious things.
"By the way, there are even more treasures in the Imperial Master's Mansion, as well as many things that are beneficial to cultivation. They all belong to Imperial Master Xiao."
